State your expectations for the season here:

[Canary]

It all.

[Mixed-Nutz]

Expectations need to be set with a ceiling and a floor. For instance, we should make the tourney every year and one in every four we should reach a sweet 16. Also we should be fun to watch.

[8manpick]

Yeah definitely need a ceiling for our expectations that they had better not even think of exceeding

[Trogdor]

B12 trophy or bust

[star seed 7]

My expectations are that we beat KU and don't rush the court. I know it's fun and all, but it should be an expectation by now. 

  except down

[Lucas Scoopsalot]

My expectations are that to make a push for the final four. Whether we make it or not.
Others include Big 12 title and beating KU a majority of the times we play them.

[pvegs]

Top 3 in conference. Sweet 16.

[ChiComCat]

I expect top 3/4 in conference and a second round exit.  I hope for better.

I expect the cats to do good and compete and represent our university well!

whoa there easy does it

[scottwildcat]

I will be 100% honest: I will meltdown and be super pissed if we lose any noncon games. Is that rational? No. Should
I? Probably not, but that's just where I'm at this morning.

[CyberToothCat]

Last year, we swept TCU and Tech and we got swept by Baylor. We split with everyone else. I think this year is exactly the same, except we win one vs Baylor. 11-7.

I think a reasonable goal is 11-2 in noncon. This includes 4-2 overall in the three games in Maui, the roadie to Tenn, the neutral vs A&M and the home game vs UGA, along with Sweeping all thescrubs.

22-9 going into the Big 12 tourney and solidly in the NCAA field.

[Asteriskhead]

Regular Season Conference Champs.

Two NCAA tournament wins.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Teams we'll sweep in conf: tcu, ttu, wvu, ut, osu.
Team we'll probably split with: bu, ou, ku, isu

Assuming we go 13-1, or whatevs, ooc and 14-4 conf., we should be ~29-6 (1 or 2 wins and or a loss in the big 12) a 2 or a 3 seed in the ncaa.  Would be a good year and good shot at the S16

We will sweep BU, we also should be a bad match up for ISU this year.

I doubt we sweep Texas.

[cas4ksu]

I'd be disappointed if we weren't to make it to the Sweet 16. I feel like we have the team to do it.

[illBisonYourdele]

have there been any reports from practice??

we have started practicing, yes??

[pissclams]

it sounds like you're looking for some real basketball meat to chew on. 

[mocat]

winning NCAA tourney games is the most fun you can have during a CBB season

how about picking up a fresh, piping hot waldo pizza right before tip-off?  chugging milk, eating pizza, and watching the cats.  my gosh i think i just had a heart attack. 

[Boondock Poonhound]

yep practice has started.   

[Pete]

Great thread Chingon!

Team Expectations:
1) An entertaining brand of basketball (subjective, evaluated by my Peggy Po's/Nancy Neg's column)
2) non-con:
     -Win all Home and the Home/Neutral game vs. A&M
     -3rd Place or better in Maui
     -Continue to own the Beach
3) conference:
     -at least 3rd place
     -Win 8/9 of home games
     -Win 6/9 of road games
4) tourney(s):
     -play to seed

This guy "gets it."  Huge ditto for me on this.   Play to the seed! 

[ksupamplemousse]

I want our performance to be good enough this year that the expectation is a conference championship next year.
